Billy Wayne Davis: Live at Third Man Records

Description

You don't need to be from the South to understand Billy Wayne Davis' particular brand of cutting humor, but being the Nashvillians we are (both transplanted and native), this up-and-comer is one of our favorite used-to-be local (and soon-to-go-global) stand-up comedians. Davis has gone from surprising crowds at the comedy club down the road with his “sharp-tongued-twang," to conquering the alt comedy scene of Seattle, to hangin' with Marc Maron, opening for Sturgill Simpson, winning over millions on Last Comic Standing, starring in a Morgan Spurlock produced documentary about Freedom, and working with the likes of Greg Giraldo, Louis CK, and Mitch Hedberg along the way.

Davis, now living in Los Angeles, headed back to Nashville while on tour last Spring and left the Blue Room audience in stitches. Third Man Records is thrilled to relive the night and share the comedic stylings Tennessee's much-missed "small-town-smart-mouth" with the masses, adding another catalog number to what is becoming a pretty formidable collection of comedy records, including offerings from Reggie Watts, Rory Scovel, Aziz Ansari, Bill Burr, Conan O'Brien, Neil Hamburger, and more.

The Billy Wayne Davis Live at Third Man Records 12" LP comes with a download code for a video of Davis' complete set.
